Roxy Music - Newcastle Complete (The Full 1974 Broadcast) - DOUBLE LP

The Complete Legendary Broadcast From 1974

Roxy Music’s fourth LP, "Country Life", was released in November 1974 and was the first Roxy album to enter the US Top 40. "Country Life" was met with widespread critical acclaim, with Rolling Stone referring to it "as if Ferry ran a cabaret for psychotics, featuring chanteurs in a state of shock".

The band had begun touring their new album in September of ’74, and had played more than 30 shows across the UK before heading off to continental Europe in November, to perform in Germany, Sweden, Holland, Belgium, France and Switzerland.

Roxy Music’s final two shows in the UK during this jaunt took place at Newcastle City Hall on October 27th & 28th 1974, and the latter of these two was recorded for live radio broadcast. Four numbers from this date appeared later on Roxy’s first live album, "Viva! Roxy Music", released in August 1975, but previously the entire concert has remained unreleased on vinyl.

This new 2LP set now addresses this situation, featuring as it does the complete 28th October 1974 broadcast of Roxy Music live at Newcastle City Hall, certain to become a must-have item for the band’s thousands of fans still flying the flag for one of Britain’s finest and most challenging groups of the '70s and '80s.
